Suitor Type
Embracing Imperfection: Northbound's Reflection on Self-Discovery
Lyrics
A suitor type, it would be nice
A desire for a romantic partner who fits a certain ideal
A lack of codependency
Preference for independence and avoiding unhealthy reliance on others
But I can't be anybody but me
Acknowledgment of personal authenticity and inability to be someone else
And unfortunately
Expressing a limitation or obstacle
I'm always barking up the wrong tree
Frequently pursuing the wrong romantic interests
I'm always stuck inside my pity
Feeling trapped in self-pity
I hate my ways
Strong dislike for personal traits
I hate this place
Discontent with the current situation or environment
But I'm too damn selfish to try to change a thing
Admitting selfishness and reluctance to change
This diary is killing me
Suggesting emotional distress caused by keeping a diary
I wanna find the flaws in everything
Desire to find imperfections in everything
I wanna know that you won't let go
Desire for reassurance and commitment in a relationship
This apathy, it swallows me
Feeling overwhelmed by apathy, lacking joy
I don't find the joy in anything
Expressing a general lack of joy or enthusiasm
I wanna know that you're not losing hope
Seeking assurance that the partner remains hopeful
'Cause I can't just dig myself back out
Feeling unable to overcome personal challenges easily
'Cause it's not as simple as it sounds
Recognizing the complexity of personal struggles
The suitor type, that would be nice
Reiteration of the desire for an ideal romantic partner
Live in another skin
Expressing reluctance to change one's identity
I can't imagine it
Difficulty imagining a different way of life
Nothing sounded so great before
Prior lack of interest in alternatives
But I've grown accustomed to all superstitions
Accustomed to superstitions and distractions
And things that just cloud my way back home
Challenges and distractions preventing a clear path
It seems your answer is within the question itself
Recognizing that the answer to a dilemma is inherent in the question
Should you move your life forward or put me on the shelf
Dilemma: Move life forward or prioritize the speaker in the relationship
This diary is killing me
Repetition of the emotional distress caused by keeping a diary
I wanna find the flaws in everything
Continued desire to find flaws in everything
I wanna know that you won't let go
Repeated desire for reassurance and commitment in a relationship
This apathy, it swallows me
Reiteration of feeling overwhelmed by apathy
I don't find the joy in anything
Continued lack of joy or enthusiasm
I wanna know that you're not losing hope
Reiterating the need for assurance that the partner remains hopeful
'Cause I can't just dig myself back out
Reiteration of feeling unable to overcome personal challenges easily
When I want to be somebody else
Expressing a desire to escape one's current identity
The suitor type, a different light, that would be nice
Reiteration of the desire for an ideal romantic partner in a different light
